Happy Mother’s Day 2019

Happy Mother’s Day to all of our Fort Sanders Regional moms! The calling to care for others is often passed from generation to generation, and this is especially true in this FSR family. Cathy Fry, the director of Women’s Services is fortunate enough to work alongside her mother who volunteers in her department and her son who works in the lab. This family trio make a special effort to eat lunch together at least once a week and enjoy seeing each other at the hospital whenever they can. Read more about Margaret, her daughter Cathy, and her son Chris below.
